Warwick Quantum Launch Event

 Warwick Quantum is a new interdisciplinary research initiative that brings together the University of Warwick’s quantum technology work, encompassing the Departments of Computer Science, Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics, as well as the School of Engineering and the Warwick Manufacturing Group. Our vision is to provide a bridge between these areas, making an impact on quantum computing and quantum technologies at all levels, from theory and foundations to hardware and industrial applications.

We are hosting the Warwick Quantum launch event in Warwick on Friday, July 11, 2025. The speakers will include Dmitry Budker, Sir Peter Knight, Helena Knowles, Gerald Milburn, and Michael Cuthbert.

Harvard Quantum Shorts Contest

In celebration of the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, the Harvard Quantum Initiative invites students ages 14–19 to participate in an exciting global competition!

Create and submit a short video that explores a topic in quantum science—whether it’s quantum computing, entanglement, superposition, or any concept that inspires you. This is your chance to showcase your scientific insight, creativity, and passion for discovery.

Selected winners will receive an exclusive opportunity to visit Harvard’s cutting-edge quantum research facilities and meet world-class scientists.

Quantum Machine Learning Workshop

This workshop provides an introduction to Quantum Machine Learning using PennyLane and PyTorch, with hands-on exercises and take-home challenges. The workshop includes four practical sessions that cover the QML concepts, models, and techniques. The sessions explore the development of quantum estimators and classifiers, their training with various optimisers, loss and cost functions, as well as model testing and scoring using variety of metrics. It finally, explains how to create hybrid quantum-classical QML models.

QuSantiago IV

En esta edición especial del QuSantiago, el encuentro dedicado a la investigación y desarrollo en tecnologías cuánticas, nos complace en anunciar su realización durante el presente año, reafirmando su compromiso con la excelencia académica y el avance científico. Este evento, que se llevará a cabo en conjunto con la Universidad Federico Santa María (Campus San Joaquín) y la Universidad de Santiago de Chile (USACH), representa una oportunidad única para el intercambio interdisciplinario entre instituciones de alto prestigio.

Enfoque Temático

En esta edición se abordarán dos ejes temáticos de alta relevancia en la investigación cuántica:

Sistemas Cuánticos Abiertos (USM)

Exploraremos las bases de computación cuántica y topología para entender la relevancia del anuncio de Microsoft y su nuevo chip Majorana. Además de comprender las bases de otra de las áreas más contraintuitiva como la termodinámica cuántica, donde se abordarán aspectos fundamentales para entender los ciclos termodinámicos básicos y su relevancia en máquinas y baterías cuánticas.

Técnicas para el Cálculo de Sistemas de Muchos Cuerpos (USACH)

Técnicas para el cálculo de sistemas de muchos cuerpos: Con la limitación de los computadores cuánticos actuales, técnicas para el estudio de sistemas de muchos cuerpos como Tensor Network tienen gran relevancia en estos días. En esta instancia abordaremos los aspectos básicos para cálculos que involucren Hamiltonianos de muchos cuerpos, como los es la técnica de Density Matrix Renormalization Group y cómo esta evoluciona a tensor network.

II International Congress of STEAM Educational Experiences

The International Conference of STEAM Educational Experiences aims to be a forum for all education professionals of all educational stages, people and institutions interested in education, and people who have started their teaching or educational research careers. It aims to be a meeting point for the exchange of experiences and reflections and the creation of synergies between professionals and institutions. There will be many presentations and workshops, both in-person and online. There will be dedicated spaces for: – Educational programming and robotics. – Climate Change. – Citizen Science. – Augmented Reality, cultural heritage, and STEAM. – Quantum Science and Technology (QST) in Education.

Academic Exchange and Student Conference on Advancements in Physics (AESCAP)

The student organization LC Delhi, representing the Member Committee India under the International Association of Physics Students (IAPS), is proudly presenting the Academic Exchange and Student Conference on Advancements in Physics (AESCAP). This four-day event will take place from April 9th to 12th, 2025, in Delhi. Hosted by Delhi Technological University and Deen Dayal Upadhyaya College (University of Delhi), AESCAP aims to engage undergraduate and master’s students, both national and international. The conference is expected to attract up to 200 participants, providing a platform for academic exchange and discussions on the latest advancements in quantum science and physics.

The event will focus on the rapidly evolving field of quantum computing, quantum information, and their applications. The program will cover foundational topics such as the basics of qubits, quantum computing, quantum information, introduction to quantum gates, as well as hands-on workshops for using Qiskit and quantum CCD techniques. It will also explore India’s quantum future, quantum cryptography, and the role of AI and machine learning in academia and society. We will also have famous science communicators to discuss our quantum future and discuss the importance of science communication. Beyond technical discussions, the event will address broader global challenges and initiate conversation on important topics through panel discussions on women in physics and climate change.
